"On the sixth day of the third month of the first year of Tianxing.

"When I woke up today, I found the village at the foot of Laoshan Mountain dead silent. The villagers have all been turned into corpses, unable to breathe and lose their heartbeats.

"At the same time, I feel empowered.

"With the art of cause and effect, I quickly learned that these villagers were killed by me when I was unconscious. Some of them were drained out of my soul and became my food.

"Maybe that's part of the price you need to pay for cultivating the Forbidden Technique!

"I have to say that the Forbidden Art of the Shadow is a very mysterious spell - even with my cultivation, it is difficult to fully understand what it is.

"In order to gain a deeper understanding of the Forbidden Technique, I decided to do an experiment with dead villagers in the village at the foot of Laoshan Mountain.

"As far as I know, this spell can be used on a living person, as well as on a person who is no more than seven days after death.

"These villagers should be compliant.

“……

"On the seventh day of the third month of the first year of Tianxing.

"The experiment was a success.

"When I applied the 'Forbidden Spell' to the corpses of these villagers, they got up from the ground again.

"Compared to before, their appearance has not changed much, but they have inexplicably grown tiger-like claws; Moreover, their combat ability is far stronger than that of ordinary humans, comparable to the ghosts of the 'wild ghost' level.

"I named these newly-born goblins 'Otters?'.

"From this day forward, these 'otters?' They will become the guardians of Laoshan and the first test to the top of Laoshan Mountain. Any descendant who wants to climb Laoshan Mountain to obtain my inheritance must first have the ability to defeat the 'Otter?' strength.

“……”

"The tenth day of the sixth month of the fifth year of Tianxing.

"In the years after practicing the Forbidden Technique, hunger became the most painful thing for me.

"I had to ingest the human soul in order to maintain the stability of my own soul. Otherwise, I will be insane, irrational, and a monster controlled by complete instinct - which undoubtedly means that I will no longer be me.

"However, if I continue to kill people, sooner or later I will attract the attention of Emperor Tianxing and Luo Sitou.

"I had to think of a solution.

…………

Could it be that this Yishan Mountain, like the ruins of Laoshan Mountain, also has a prohibition that can shield the heavens?

Just when Gu Xu was puzzled, he had already crossed the void and arrived at his destination.

Then he froze.

Because the scene that appeared in front of him was not the expected Yamen of Laizhou Mansion, but a huge black altar.

It is located in the middle of the valley of Yishan, surrounded by gray mist and rich yin qi.

Even if the outside world is shaking, it is extraordinarily stable.

There are intricate lines on the altar, flashing with a faint light, and it should be a formation if it is not surprising.

In front of the altar, there were nine black-robed men with their backs to him, silently chanting incantations.

"Black Altar ......"

At this time, Gu Xu remembered that when he was in Laizhou Mansion, the dead "Qingluan" Du Jingjing once told him a piece of information-

"A mysterious black altar has appeared within the Yishan area, which is likely to be the source of the recent evil qi."

It's just that for some reason, he never thought about this altar, nor did he look up the relevant information.

This is completely inconsistent with his style of doing things!

What's going on here?

"Gu Xu, why are you here?" A familiar voice sounded beside him, "I crushed the 'Broken Sky Bead' just now, and I was going to go back to Yishui County, but I don't know why I came to this place......"

Hearing this voice, Gu Xu immediately turned his head and saw Shi Xiaohan's petite figure at a glance.

I saw that her face was pale, her eyes were full of fear, and she had obviously never experienced such a terrible thing.

"I don't know very well......" Gu Xu also showed a bitter smile on his face, "I also came to this place after crushing the 'Broken Void Bead'......"

At this time, Gu Xu also saw two familiar figures next to the altar-

One is the eldest prince Xiao Shangyuan, and the other is his personal follower Fan Cheng.

The two of them were just like them, looking dazed and at a loss.

So Gu Xu came to the conclusion that someone had interfered with the space, so that the people who escaped with the "Broken Sky Bead" came to this strange place.

"What the hell is going on?"

Just when Gu Xu was puzzled, the nine people in front of the altar suddenly turned around in unison.

The faces of six of them were unfamiliar.

The remaining three people were the ones Gu Xu had seen.

The person standing on the far left is a middle-aged man with a mediocre appearance and a gloomy temperament.

He was dressed in an old coarse cloth shirt, carried a pocket on his back, and carried a small wooden frame on his shoulder. On that little wooden shelf, there were a few mice jumping up and down—

It is the artist who once performed the "rat play" on Xunliu Street in Yishui County!

At the beginning, even if Gu Xu had a divine perception ability that far exceeded that of ordinary people, he couldn't understand how this middle-aged man controlled these mice.

But now he understood.

This middle-aged man's means of controlling mice is actually a "line of cause and effect"!

The person standing on the far right, Gu Xu is more familiar-

It turned out to be the hunchbacked old man who guarded the treasury in the Yishui County Exorcism Division!

When Gu Xu's eyes fell on the old man, the old man showed him a kind smile.

Gu Xu remembered that before the Chinese New Year, the old man proposed to Chen Jisheng that he would go to his hometown in Qingzhou Mansion to sweep the graves of his relatives.

But in fact, before that day, Gu Xu never knew where the old man's hometown was, and he had never heard the old man mention anything about his relatives.

"By the way, what's the old man's name?"

Gu Xu was shocked and realized a serious problem: he had been in the Exorcism Division for more than a year, and he still didn't know the old man's real name!

And standing in the center is also a face that Gu Xu has ever seen-

It was an old Taoist with a long white beard, wearing a dark blue Taoist robe, and holding a whisk in his hand.

At this moment, the corners of the mouths of these nine people curled slightly in the same arc, revealing exactly the same smile, and said to Gu Xu in unison:

"You're finally here, my heir."
